The efficacy of Metarhizium anisopliae in combination with sublethal concentrations of oils and potassium-oleate for biological control of whiteflies was tested under controlled conditions. Three commercial products (Biola ® , Naturen ® , Neudosan ® ) and five experimental formulations of plant oils were tested. The efficacy of M. anisopliae against Trialeurodes vaporariorum and Bemisia tabaci without additives was about 50%. At 1/20 of their recommended dosages, all compounds tested significantly increased the efficacy of M. anisopliae for the control of T. vaporariorum , with the formulated sunflower oil Biola ® giving the highest synergistic effect, reaching nearly 100% control. Not only was the level of control increased but also the speed of action was improved, resulting in a higher reliability of control. Three of seven additives showed no effects on the viability of conidia on the leaf surface, whereas the formulations of the other oils and oleates reduced the longevity of spores. The synergistic effect of Biola resulted from the more even distribution of M. anisopliae conidia on leaves and insects. Other positive effects of oils on the efficacy of M. anisopliae are discussed in relation to an extended spectrum of environmental conditions and pests to be controlled. |
